Pulumi up: error Failed to locate python3? But I just created a virtualenv from it?

I believe some Windows installations of Python 3.6 do not install a `python3` binary. If you do not have one, you’ll need to use the workaround in <https://github.com/pulumi/pulumi/issues/3398#issuecomment-546138407> until that issue is fixed. 

Hi Luke managed to get closer to pulumi up... now using python 3.7.5 and copying python.exe to python3.exe as you suggested there. Now only have this aws-py-resources error No module named  pulumi 



Sounds like you didn’t install pip requirements / did you actually successfully run all the steps in <https://github.com/pulumi/examples/tree/master/aws-py-resources#aws-resources>. 

Is this because I am using a normal personal account but in corporate ENV?

While in aws-py-resources:

1. Pulumi stack init dev in aws-py-resource didn’t generate new resources (is that to be expected?)
2. Pulumi config set aws:region eu-west-2
3. Opened project in Pycharm and created virtualenv
4. Then inside virtualenv pip install -r requirements.txt
5. Pulumi up

And that last response gave 

You must be authenticated to access this URL

If so then request internal corporate help to whitelist?

&gt; Authenticate user against AAD

Honestly no idea - and would need more context on what you are doing. This doesn’t sound related to Pulumi - it sounds like something to do with lockdown in your corporate environment. I might be able to help troubleshoot if you could be very specific on the steps you took and the results you saw. 

&gt; You must be authenticated to access the URL

Again - no idea the context of that message. What exact action did you take and what exact output did you get?  

That error message is not something that comes from Pulumi - but I don’t know what exactly you are doing to get it so hard to know what to suggest. 


“Proxy received an invalid response” and then the page above 

I apologize - but I really can’t follow the steps you are sharing here - and would need the exact output to be able to help - not just a couple words from the output. 

What is the full output of running `pulumi up` and ideally also `pulumi up —logtostderr -v=9`. 

Manually downloaded  1.6.1 and updated path in Win 10 but still saying version 1.6.0? Do I need to restart Win machine?

No - you should not need to download. Sounds like your path still includes the older installation first?
